Fortnite how to get a refund on a Skin purchase in the shop and get V-Bucks back

Recent updates to Fortnite have allowed Epic Games teams to add a feature long requested by players. You can now get your money back if you are not completely satisfied. So, if you buy an emote, skin or anything else that you really regret, you can ask for a refund and get V-Bucks back that you can use again in the shop to give you something else.
